Rained out farmers see some relief Christine Lyon Black Press Lower Mainland farmers who watched last season’s fall crops rot in soggy fields after record-setting rains are getting some long-awaited financial relief. The federal and provincial agricultural ministers were in Ladner Tuesday morning (July 12) to announce funding meant to help B.C. farmers recover from the damage caused by extreme weather in 2010 and into the spring of 2011. Dozens of local growers and politicians gathered at Burr Farms in east Ladner for a press conference in which federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and B.C. Minister of Agriculture Don McRae announced up to $5 million for two new AgriRecovery initiatives to help vegetable, cattle and bison producers struck by disaster. The Feed Assistance and Pasture Restoration Initiative will help livestock producers affected by drought, flooding and wildfires in Bella Coola, Cariboo-Chilcotin and the Central Interior regions, including $14 per acre to reseed pasture land and $1 per cow for each day the animal was required to be off those pastures. The Excess Moisture Initiative includes $175 per acre for potato and vegetable producers in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island to assist with the costs of restoring waterdamaged crop land. “This includes a payment for the disposal of products spoiled in storage and the cleaning and disinfecting of equipment and storage bins,” Ritz said. He said the two levels of government are working together “to ensure these producers get the help they need to keep their land productive and help bolster their bottom line. “We want to ensure that our B.C. producers can get their businesses back on track for 2011 and beyond.” Continued: FARMERS/ p9

Waiting and watching the river rise Jennifer Feinberg The Progress Farmers with flooded fields in Chilliwack are keeping a close eye on the water as the mighty Fraser River rises — again. It’s uncharacteristically late in the season but a “high streamflow advisory” was issued by the BC River Forecast Centre for the Lower Fraser on July 11 as a result of heavy rains up north. Most of the hazelnut farm owned by John and Hanne van den Brink is under water. “It’s a horrible feeling,” said John van den Brink. “We’re just watching and waiting.” Theirs is one of 17 properties
in Chilliwack outside the city’s diking infrastructure. “It’s like a big lake out there. It’s hard to believe those trees are likely going to die. They still look not too bad,” van den Brink said. They’d been harbouring faint hope that if the “feet of the trees” in the hazelnut orchard were able to dry out, as it looked like they might last weekend, maybe they could save some of their crops. “But now the river level is back up and we’re right back where we started,” he said. The big question is how fast the waters will recede. “Nobody knows,” van den Brink said.
He figures they’ll be flooded for a couple of extra weeks even if the water levels drop in the next week. Facing a similar situation of flooded crops are blueberry farmers Buhd and Amarjit Gill. On Monday they noticed with trepidation that the water levels were rising again. “It’s probably going to hit us today,” said Amarjit Gill on Tuesday, about the river flow scoming from up north. Things looked a little worse on the farm than they did a month ago because the blueberry plants are slowly dying under water. They’d been cultivating them for six years.
Now all they can do is monitor the four sump pumps and make sure they’re operating efficiently to protect their home. “All this can wear on a person,” she said. “It’s hard watching the pumps. But it’s always on our minds to save the house. It’s the only thing we can save.” They’re hopeful some agency will step forward to offset the water damage to 20 acres of blueberry plants. “We haven’t heard anything from the city or the province,” Gill said. “But a guy from the Ministry of Agriculture was out here this week looking around.

Agreement aims to boost aboriginal graduation rates Katie Bartel The Progress Aboriginal excellence in schools has been overlooked for too long, says B.C.’s child watchdog. A memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by the Representative for Children and Youth and the First Nations Education Steering Committee (FNESC) last Friday is working to change that. “We must expect excellence and the highest achievement from our aboriginal children,” said representative Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond.
High school completion for aboriginal students in B.C. currently sits at 51 per cent; 45 per cent in Chilliwack. Other provinces, like Saskatchewan, sit at just 20 per cent. “While we may be doing better than other provinces, we’re not doing nearly as well as we should be,” said Turpel-Lafond. “Anything short of being on par with your peers, which is an 80 per cent graduation rate, is not good enough.” Since taking office in 2006, Turpel-Lafond has been working with FNESC, an independent soci-
ety committed to improving education for First Nation students in B.C.. The issues they feel need to be addressed include determining whether aboriginal children are ready to learn when they start kindergarten, providing better assessments and supports for aboriginal students with special needs, and keeping better track of students in foster care, who are moved around frequently. “These are very specific issues at how we look at education, how we look at children, and how we make sure the needs of children,
who we know are particularly vulnerable to poor achievement, are being addressed early, quickly and effectively so their level of achievement is equal to their peers,” said Turpel-Lafond. The partnership between Turpel-Lafond and FNESC has been an eye opener for Tyrone McNeil, president of FNESC and vice president of the Sto:lo Tribal Council in Chilliwack. “Mary Ellen has shed light on a lot of the issues our kids are facing in school, in particular kids with continuing custody orders,” said McNeil.
■ M INI G OLFER
A child with a continuing custody order is a ward of the state. “With her support, we delved into the numbers and found that of the kids under continuing custody orders, only 14 per cent of males are graduating and 25 per cent females,” said McNeil. “Until she pushed enough buttons to find out those graduation rates, nobody had any idea. It was just on nobody’s radar.” The MOU was not necessary to continue the partnership, but what it does, said McNeil, is publicly Continued: MOU/ p12
Police ask for help to identify bank robbers One suspect appears in court

A $2,000 reward is being offered by police to identify suspects involved in a Chilliwack bank robbery last week. One of the three suspects, Ryan Terry Therrien of West Kelowna, appeared in court on July 11, in connection with charges of robbery, and disguising his face with intent to commit a crime. The holdup on July 8 at the Vedder Road Bank of Montreal saw two men wearing bandanas and then fleeing in a white van driven by a third suspect, according to police files. The suspects escaped with an undisclosed amount of cash and the van was later ditched on Lickman Road. Therrien is still in custody and awaiting a July 19 show cause hearing. “The Chilliwack RCMP Serious Crime Section is still investigating and are looking for the other two men connected to this robbery,” said RCMP Cpl. Tammy Hollingsworth. Police have information on the possible identities. But they are asking anyone with any information to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 or receive a cash reward of up to $2,000 by reporting an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477 (TIPS) or visit http://www.chilliwackcrimestoppers. ca/ to report online.
Two men airlifted to hospital after collision with police car Jessica Peters Black Press Two people were in hospital at press time Wednesday, following a collision between a police cruiser and a Ford Mustang. The incident happened just after 11 p.m. on Tuesday night, on Hwy. 7 near Bodnar Road in Agassiz. Abbotsford Police Department, who were called in on Wednesday to investigate the incident, said it was a Chilliwack RCMP member involved. The Mustang was driven by a 20-yearold male, with a 19-year-old male passenger. The pair was airlifted to hospital and the driver

was in critical condition on Wednesday morning. The passenger was in serious condition. The RCMP member was treated in hospital and has since been released. The accident resulted in a closure of the highway, so collision reconstructionists could assess the scene. The highway remained closed until about 10 a.m. Wednesday morning. “Our objective is to complete a thorough and comprehensive investigation which includes all available facts and evidence,” said Abbotsford Police Department Const. Ian MacDonald. Watch for updates on this story online at www.theprogress.com.

Almost two years after Courtney Anderson was arrested at the airport in Nigeria, and was subjected to hours of detainment, before being deported back to BC without explanation, she and her dad, Steve Anderson, are going back to Nigeria. The Wanted Children Foundation needs them. “We’re not finished,” said Steve. “The work hasn’t stopped. We still have staff employed. We’re still feeding the kids, still caring for the kids.

For Courtney, then just 23 years old, she couldn’t turn her back on the kids. The Wanted Children
Foundation was created with a mission to provide food, shelter, educational and medical services to those most vulnerable. The organization strives to build a full-functioning orphanage, school and medical facility all on the same property. But in five years, it’s experienced a book load of struggles. They’ve been swindled by socalled friends, trusted dishonest church officials, and were even threatened. None of it deterred Courtney.

Instead of wallow in what some might consider a failure, she persevered. From Canada, she kept the operation running. She continued to employ staff on the ground in Nigeria, continued to raise funds for medical bills, supplies, clothing, food and other necessities, continued to feed the hungry, and champion the cause. She also continued her own education. Later this month Courtney will be walking across the commencement stage at Acadia University in Nova Scotia where she will receive her teaching degree. She also has degrees in international relations, political science and history. All of which will help her and The Wanted Children Foundation succeed, said Steve. Steve and Courtney will be flying from Nova Scotia to Nigeria on July 29. Their trip will last three and a half weeks, and will include multiple meetings with tribal chiefs to discuss how the foundation can help the region with things like water, economy, agriculture, etc.. They also hope to start laying the foundation for the school. Anyone interested in donating to the cause can contact The Wanted Children Foundation at 604-798-4878.

They brought Chilliwack a new dining experience to broaden our horizons, and that is exactly what they did. The Firestone Grill is the first restaurant of its kind in Chilliwack and it offers something totally new: traditional Korean barbecue. On each table is a description of the cooking style and its rich history. The first thing a diner will notice is that at the centre of each table is a large stone grill. Meats are cooked on the super hot grill, locking in flavour and freshness. They are served with a variety of side dishes and assorted vegetables. The dishes are shared (except the rice) in a fun and communal way. “This custom represents the true character of Koreans as being social people who prefer to do everything together.” Not only do you experience sizzling masterpieces at your table, with creative cookery, but the quick lunch they serve is a piece of art in itself, perfect for the executive on the run. But the food is more than just delicious. The health benefits of Korean food are drawing increasing attention, both here and around the world. Kimchi is the most common Korean side dish. There are hundreds of varieties – however, they share a reputation for wholesomeness that is drawing strong endorsement. Indeed, Health Magazine has declared Kimchi one of the five best health foods in the world. “Korean cuisine is a culmination of wisdom passed down from enlightened beings of the past.” The Firestone Grill will be tantalizing your taste buds with an all you can eat 2 for 1 extreme deal, every Sunday for the month of July. The Firestone Grill is located at 45833 Yale Road, Next to Tim Hortons and Big O Tire. There’s plenty of parking around back. For more information, call 604-792-5091.

Flood waters dependent on weather
Farmers had hoped for more government help FARMERS from Front McRae noted that vegetable growers in the Fraser Valley and parts of Vancouver Island dealt with “severe and excess moisture problems that left many crops sitting in fields, immersed underwater and unavailable for harvest. “We, not just in British Columbia, but across Canada want to see B.C. food at our farmer’s markets and our local grocery stores, on our dinner tables and at our restaurants.” Jack Bates is president of the Canadian Horticultural Council and runs Tecarte Farms, a 450-acre potato, blueberry and dairy operation in South Delta. “Having lived through the devastation in the potato and vegetable industry last season, I appreciate the efforts put forward by all producers, our associations, and both levels of government which led to today’s announcement of assistance,” he
said. Though met with applause, the $175-peracre funding announcement left some local growers wanting. “It was short of our expectations,” said Peter Guichon, who runs South Delta’s Felix Farms, the largest grower of potatoes in the province. He had hoped for $300 or $400 per acre. “But having said that, something is better than nothing,” he added. Last season Guichon said he left some 9,000 tons of potatoes in the ground. He calculates he could receive $70,000 for his 400 acres of affected land. Bill Zylmans, who runs the 500-acre W&A Farms in East Richmond, is a member of the working group that negotiated funding with the government. “It took a long time, it was a tough road for us to haul,” he said. Farmers had originally hoped for $1,200 per acre to represent losses, he said, but after closer
presents the...
FLOOD from Front
examination and negotiations, that number was brought way down. “It’s not a lot of money, but it is a token of understanding and every little bit helps. As farmers, we’re in deep problems with finding funding anyway.” Zylmans estimates he lost $500,000 last season, largely due to unharvested seed potatoes, and is thankful he also grows strawberries and other summer vegetables to hedge his losses. “The hit was a lot harder for some of these Delta guys who really had everything in potatoes or everything in beans,” he said. He is scheduled to attend follow up meetings to decide how the money will be divided among affected farmers.

“We don’t know if they’ll be able to help us or not,” Gill said. City officials were also out at Carey Point monitoring the rising river levels early Wednesday morning. “I know it’s been a struggle for the property owners who are maybe facing economic losses due to damaged crops,” said Jim Macdonald, City of Chilliwack’s emergency program coordinator. “But to me it looks like an end
is in sight. We certainly hope that’s the case so these folks can get their lives back to normal.” It has been an extraordinarily long freshet. Typically the worst is over in the Lower Fraser system by the end of May or early June. According to the BC River Forecast Centre, the last time the Fraser has been this high this late in the year was in the 1920s. “We should see levels starting to drop by Thursday and they should keep dropping over the weekend,” said Macdonald.
In fact he doubts the river will even hit the estimated peak of six metres at the Mission bridge gauge. “It looks like we’ll get similar levels to what we saw at the peak on July 4 and not more,” he said, which hit 5.85 metres at Mission. But everything is dependent on weather systems, and another low pressure system is reportedly on its way. jfeinberg@theprogress.com twitter.com/CHWKjourno

Changing role July 5 isn’t likely to leave a lasting mark on history. However, the end of Canada’s mission in Afghanistan is a historic moment for our nation. The book is closed on our decade-long involvement and it will take at least as much time before we’ll truly understand what our soldiers were able to achieve. Chilliwack has seen many of its military community serve in that country, and has been touched by the sacrifices made there. The question now is what’s next for Canada’s military? After spending so much time and resources in Afghanistan the culture of our forces has been indelibly shaped by this experience. Some of the attention is now focused on Libya and its ongoing civil war. But this does not appear to be the kind of endless conflict that was Afghanistan. And then there are plans for a ramped-up military presence in the Arctic. This will also take tremendous resources but will be an entirely different kind of mission. The war in Afghanistan cost Canadians more than $11 billion, a number that could double as we deal with the legacy of returning veterans. Despite our departure the work continues, including by a contingent of Canadians tasked with training Afghans to take charge of their own security. Elsewhere in the world we can only guess where the next trouble spot will be. We might not make a big deal come next July 5, but Canadians can take pride in the work done by our military personnel over the last decade and feel confident that whatever comes next, they’ll make a difference on the world stage. – Black Press
B.C. V IEWS
Asia-Pacific project continues to march on VICTORIA – Here are a few items that didn’t make the daily news cycle as B.C. residents prepared for the long-awaited summer of 2011 to begin. • After her recent meeting with Prime Minister Stephen Harper in Ottawa, Premier Christy Clark delivered a luncheon speech to the Economic Club of Toronto. Her big talking point for the speech was the rise of the AsiaPacific region, “the fastest-growing middle class in the history of humanity.” The theme ran through her pitch to the federal government for a share of Ottawa’s largest-ever shipbuilding contract, and her recent meeting with western premiers in Yellowknife. No word on how Clark’s enthusiasm for the west as Canada’s economic engine of the future went over with the Bay Street crowd. • After the speech, Clark took

the wheel of a Chevy Volt electric car for a spin around Toronto with a GM Canada vice-president riding shotgun. She pronounced the car “fantastic technology.” This is pertinent as B.C. residents get ready to pay the latest increase in B.C.’s carbon tax. Effective July 1, the tax on a litre of gasoline rises Tom from 4.45 cents FLETCHER to 5.56, with comparable increases to other carbon fuels. Clark has inherited Gordon Campbell’s aggressive climate change-clean energy agenda, and it’s not yet clear what will become of it. She has committed to the last consumer carbon tax increase in 2012 (up to 6.67 cents on a litre of gas), but the
fate of the big hydroelectric push remains uncertain. Those plug-in electric cars need to start selling before Campbell’s gamble of developing increasingly costly electricity starts to pay off. One potential competitor is natural gas-powered vehicles, taking advantage of huge new shale gas discoveries in B.C. and elsewhere. • Campbell’s appointment as Canada’s high commissioner in the United Kingdom should warm the hearts of conspiracy theorists. The story broke when Clark was in Ottawa, and when reporters asked for her take on the appointment, her first comment was that he’ll be a big help in negotiating a free trade agreement with the European Union. Students of Bill Vander Zalm will know that he sees the harmonized sales tax and EU trade as an effort to impose world govern-
ment and set B.C.’s sales tax rate in Europe. Early in his goofy anti-HST campaign, Vander Zalm claimed this was plan B for world government after the conspirators failed to impose a global carbon tax. If the HST is a conspiracy, it’s a mighty big one. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon never tires of reminding people that 140 countries already have value-added taxes, including China and those other Asia-Pacific tigers that are dominating the world economy. • Douglas College in New Westminster and the Heilongjiang Institute of Science and Technology in Harbin, China have celebrated the graduation of 137 students in their dualdegree business administration program. The program began in 2003, with an exchange of instructors. At the Harbin campus, students take 52 courses to qualify them

According to the advanced education ministr y, if considered an export service, international education is B.C.’s fifth largest export, accounting for seven per cent of exports from the province. Meanwhile in B.C., discussion of international trade still tends to revolve around lumber and logs. And according to a recent poll, Vander Zalm is still considered by many to be an authority on trade and taxes. It’s time to join the world’s adult conversation.

Cultus dealing with Canada geese Re: Too many Cultus Lake geese (M. Dunbar, Chilliwack Progress, June 28) I sympathize with M. Dunbar’s problem with the droppings left by Canada Geese. There are no single cost-effective measures that can be taken to solve this problem. Currently the Park Board’s staff is engaging in efforts to utilize machinery that removes fecal matter from the ground, with marginal effectiveness for the price paid. We have also received suggestions to put
a short barrier at the lakeshore. The most frequent question I am asked on this matter is “Why not shoot them all?”. The provincial government did perform a cull of geese earlier this year in the Cultus Lake area, but the numbers culled were insufficient to have a material impact. Current federal regulations (Migratory Birds Convention Act) make it very difficult to cull larger numbers. Canada Geese droppings are not an issue unique to this area;
indeed, municipalities around British Columbia have been forced to address this matter, especially in the Okanagan area where some beaches had to be closed because of the volume of geese feces. It is quickly becoming a health issue rather than an environmental one. It is a matter we are taking with increasing seriousness as the Canada goose population is rapidly expanding.

Invitation to take part in work experience Re: letter from Pamela Cameron, “Dog grooming a worthwhile career option for students, Progress, July 5, I was intrigued by your thorough description of your pet grooming business, and was especially impressed by the extensive range of training and testing you have accumulated to master your craft. The negative experience
described in your letter, about the young student who had been misinformed by her teacher, is regretful. I would only hope that you do not paint all educators with the same brush. I wonder if you are aware that the Chilliwack School District offers an extensive Work Experience program to all high school students, the goal of which
is to provide practical learning experiences to assist young people with career decisionmaking. I would like to invite you (and your colleagues) to sponsor a student for a short period of unpaid Work Experience. You are clearly very passionate about your trade, and that would rub off on a student with a thirst for knowledge. I hope
you will consider this an opportunity to provide a lasting and positive influence for our students, while also contributing to the future of your industry. Please feel free to contact the Work Experience Dept. at your convenience. I look forward to our potential partnership. Chris Reitsma Work Experience Coordinator Chilliwack School District
What ever happened to the ‘Age of Leisure’ I came of age in the 1960s. In those days we completed the Trans-Canada Highway, and the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Columbia River and the Peace River Power Projects. We built the Deas Tunnel, the Oak Street Bridge, the Second Narrows Bridge, the Rosedale-Agassiz Bridge, and the floating bridge at Kelowna. We introduced universal hospital insurance, Medicare, and the Canada Pension Plan and signed the Bill of Rights and
chose a new national flag. At the same time the governments balanced their budgets and paid off their debts. We were also experiencing the largest housing boom in our history. Workers were enjoying shorter working hours and longer annual leaves. Academics were starting to talk about an Age of Leisure and 20-hour work weeks. Fifty years later, what happened? Our natural resources are worth more. Our country is
much wealthier. Yet, people are working harder and longer and are not able to buy as much. Owning a house is beyond the reach of most workers, even rent takes up most of one’s salary! Our infrastructure is crumbling, we can’t afford health care and our pensions are under funded. How can it be that when we spent money we had lots and now we are short and we don’t have any? Clifford Roulston
Motorists urged to watch for pedestrians I have a concern at the Intersection of Hocking and Yale W. where my son catches bus everyday to Summer School. He gets off the city bus in front of Husky and has to cross every day until July 29th to go to Macintosh.
He has almost been hit twice now because some drivers don’t have patience to wait while he crosses the road. They start turning as he is walking in the middle of the road. He abides by the crosswalk. Today he was terri-
fied because he almost got hit. I told my son from now on to take license plate numbers. Today a lady in a white truck almost hit him (you know who you are). I am also a pedestrian because I choose
to be; I use the transit. I don’t miss driving at all because there is so many crazy drivers out there. No wonder why the ICBC rates go up. I ask you please be careful. Bert Purcell

UFV filling up, sets July 20 deadline for applications Neil Corbett Black Press Already, UFV is nearly full for the fall semester. Students wanting to take open studies have

was 10 days later, at the end of July. The deadline had to be moved up this year, because applications are up three per cent. What’s more, the university has announced it will operate at 105 per cent of its governmentset target for admissions. Last year it ran at approximately 103 to 104 per cent. Last fall the university enrolled approximately 16,000 students, which makes it larger than about half of the universities in Canada. Demand for university courses in recent years was considered to be linked to the lagging economy – with fewer jobs, more people

returned to school. But it seems the trend is continuing as the economy recovers. “Clearly, the student demand is not diminishing – it’s growing,� said Eric Davis, the provost and vice-president academic at UFV. Waiting lists for specific courses are up by 20 to 25 per cent. The university has received no new provincial government funding for growth in the number of student spaces in the past two years. With about 55 per cent of the funding for the university coming from the provincial government, adding students means UFV will be scrambling for dollars. “We’re on the hunt all the time to find funding for what we want to do,� said Davis. Other sources of revenue are tuition, capped at a two per cent
increase per year, international student fees, special contract revenues, donations and partnerships. Davis said in operating at 105 per cent – well above government targets – UFV joins a handful of universities making such a commitment to its students. Many other universities struggle to fill their classrooms. “In fact, we’ve exceeded our FTE (full-time equivalents) for over 10 years,� he said. Davis said admitting students beyond gover nment-funded capacity is not a sound long-term strategy, but added that if UFV didn’t overfill “we would have to turn away so many students, and dissatisfy so many people in the Fraser Valley...� UFV gets admission pressure from population growth and the
institution’s improving reputation. What’s more, post-secondary participation rates in the Fraser Valley have historically been low, so there is also room for growth in the percentage of the population which sees more schooling as beneficial. The ideal solution is to build more classroom and lab spaces, and hire more professors. Failing that, the provincial government could reallocate funding from other institutions that aren’t fulling up to UFV and other Lower Mainland universities where there is pressure. “It’s not politically an easy decision to take seats away from a remote or Interior college,� Davis acknowledged. The admissions closure does not include adult basic education or
English as a second language programs, vocational, or trades programs. Also, a limited selection of certificates, diplomas and degrees will continue to accept applications beyond July 20. Some seats are still available in select programs and courses, such as Agriculture, Modern Languages, Theatre, Fashion Design, and Aboriginal Culture and Language Support. Students willing to take courses at the Mission and Chilliwack campuses will find more spaces in courses available than there are at the Abbotsford campus. To find any remaining seats visit www. ufv.ca/ar/semesterinfo/csizewaitlst.htm or www.ufv.ca/ar/admissions/acceptapps.htm . Applications to most major programs are now closed for this fall.

make others aware of their intentions for increasing aboriginal excellence. McNeil believes it will also open more doors. “She’s got a tremendous amount of authority to open more doors, but she’s got a limited capacity in education,� said McNeil. “So if she opens the doors and sheds light on key areas, we can step in and work with her to come up with remedies once the problems are identified.� With this partnership, TurpelLafond has determined that more funding is required at reserve schools. She would also like to see
the Ministry of Education appoint an aboriginal superintendent of achievement, who would be responsible for researching why aboriginal achievement is so abysmal and looking into ways for effective change. “This partnership is really focused on the what, what are we doing to make this situation better,� said Turpel-Lafond. “We have to do things differently. We have to look at what is going to work to change this and make sure that we can improve these results child by child ... we have to see improvement in those results. MOUs, meetings, discussions are not going to be valuable unless we see improvement.�

Congested courts in B.C. put more cases at risk
Opening!
Long delays for child protection hearings in Chilliwack Jeff Nagel Black Press More than half of all B.C. Provincial Court cases have been stuck in the system for at least a year and a growing number are at risk of being thrown out as a result. Those are among the findings of a new update to the B.C. Provincial Court’s Justice Delayed report, which originally warned of serious delays in the system last fall. The update shows there were 2,371 adult criminal cases before the courts for more than 18 months as of March 31– a 16 per cent increase from 2,038 a year earlier. Criminal cases 12 to 18 months old climbed 18 per cent over the same period from 4,856 to 5,744. Together, the two categories make up just over half of the court’s entire caseload. Judges are bound by Supreme
Court of Canada rulings on how long cases can drag on and trials are being quashed over unacceptable delays of as little as 14 months, depending on the circumstances. The average delay across B.C. for a two-day criminal trial in March was 10.6 months, slightly worse than nine months earlier, although the stats show some improvement in the waits for child protection hearings, small claims trials and family law trials. But the numbers vary considerably depending on the court house. Surrey remains the worst for adult criminal cases, with a 16-month wait for a two-day trial. Fort St. John, Chilliwack, Terrace, Vancouver (Main Street), Kelowna and Vernon were all booking two-day criminal trials at least 13 months away. The longest delays for child protection hearings (13 to 15
Haircuts that fit you.
months) were in Cranbrook, Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Terrace, while delays of 14 to 15 months were being recorded for family trials in Fort St. John, Cranbrook, Abbotsford and Chilliwack. The original report recommended B.C. move to restore the number of Provincial Court judges from 126.3 full-time equivalents (FTEs) in September 2010 to the 2005 level of 143.6. While a few new judges have been hired since the initial report, others have retired, been promoted to B.C. Supreme Court or opted to start to cut their hours to part-time. As a result, the number of judges is now 125.1 FTEs as of the end of June, about 15 per cent fewer than in 2005 despite more cases of greater complexity. The province passed a budget this spring requiring further cuts to court staffing.

locks on low cupboards, toxic substances out of reach, lifejackets around the pool. Often forgotten though are the harmful effects of some patterns of parental thinking. It is widely understood in psychology that children are highly influenced by the attribution styles of their care providers. How we talk to ourselves, about ourselves gets passed on. How we interpret what happens in our lives, teaches chil-
dren the same interpretive skills. Granted, and in some cases thankfully, it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a one-to-one correspondence. But generally children soak up what is said by adults. They not only learn the content but they learn the style too. When I forget something I hear my dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voice in my head saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Robert, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d forget your head if it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t screwed on.â&#x20AC;? (His tone was never mean, more like â&#x20AC;&#x153;silly boyâ&#x20AC;?.) This is content. On
the other hand, I realize that I can interpret things stoically (like my dad) and optimistically (like my mom). Given the energy we put into protecting children itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising more attention isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t focused on how caregivers inadvertently teach children how to interpret events. In cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), the main scientifically proven psychotherapy for depression and anxi-

Going on vacation? Leave your home safe and secure. Summer vacation time is here, and many of us are planning on going away and enjoying some well-deserved relaxation. However, vacationing away leaves your home vulnerable to breakins and theft-related crimes. A burglary can shatter your peaceof-mind and destroy your familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sense of security. As you know, prevention is better than cure, so it helps to know what thieves are looking for and how to avoid common mistakes when leaving your home unattended.

ety, patients are taught to examine automatic negative thoughts that contribute to their worries and depression. The treatment process is analogous to getting braces on teeth. Over a period of months there is a slow tweaking of the braces as the teeth move more towards the preferred configuration. In CBT, over time the negative thought processes that were once automatic slowly recede and new neuronal thought pathways are crea t e d . As with braces, where there are Rob typical patterns LEES t h a t need correcting (overbite, wide space in the front teeth, crowded overlapping teeth), there are typical unhelpful thought patterns that CBT can fix. These patterns are just as intransigent as teeth because they have been practiced since we were children; usually passed down from our parents. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say you were taking the family to Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first â&#x20AC;&#x153;party in the parkâ&#x20AC;?. You get downtown and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find a parking spot. Out loud you say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;why does this always happen to me?â&#x20AC;? This is known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;personalization.â&#x20AC;? First, it likely doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always happen to you and secondly, you likely arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t alone, others likely had a hard time finding a spot. The kids, sitting in the back seat have learned, â&#x20AC;&#x153;when you are frustrated, consider that the universe is out to get you and you alone, you are a special victim.â&#x20AC;? Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another scenario. So you found a parking spot and are having a great time but drip mustard onto your new white blouse. Frustrated you say, this night is ruined. The truth would be more like, this was frustrating but in balance the evening was a success. What the kids learned was â&#x20AC;&#x153;all or nothingâ&#x20AC;? thinking. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perfect or no good. Over the summer my colleagues Eryn Wicker and Marie Amos and I plan to write about some common â&#x20AC;&#x153;cognitive distortionsâ&#x20AC;?. We hope that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll think about your own thinking. Cognitive distortions can make the difference between misery and a full life.

School administrators opt for new name School principals and vice principals in Chilliwack are operating under a new name. What was formerly the Chilliwack Administrators’ Association has been changed to the British Columbia Principal and Vice-principal Association (BCPVPA). The name change was passed at the association’s recent annual general meeting “to better reflect the work we do and to bring our constitution more in line with our parent association,” said Rick Jones, president of the association and principal of Chilliwack secondary, in an email to The Progress. The name change is effective immediately.

PUNTA CANA, Dominican Republic— When we pull up to the five and a half hectare farm of Maria Del Rosario and her husband Quino Pena, I can smell the coffee beans roasting. In the farmhouse kitchen, daughter Marleny stirs a bubbling lentil stew. Outside, tiny granddaughter Kiara chases a kitten among the coffee, cocoa, mango, banana and lemon trees. I have escaped the beach-and-bar scene of a standard Dominican Republic all-inclusive vacation thanks to my friend Javier Ortez Golibart. “I’ll show you the countryside, you can meet my friends,” he announced when he picked me up from the Gran Bahia Principe Ambar, a 528-room, five-star resort with gardens, pools, restaurants, spa and a golden beach. Why “escape” from this? For me, it was a desire to see beyond the beaches

of Bavaro and Punta Cana, popular, packaged havens where you are elbow to elbow with other Canadians. In Javier’s pickup truck we headed north along a highway bordered by lush vegetation punctuated by small farms and quiet villages. Soon we turned off to follow a rugged route up
Anamuya Mountain, where the scenery was rolling fields and towering trees; rustic fences bordered properties where horses roamed; and children along the road were common. At the farm I am soon chatting with the Pena family—Maria understands English, but answers in Spanish, and Javier translates.
The tiny house is spotless. A solar panel on the roof is its power source. The kitchen is separate so that it doesn’t overheat the house—the average daily temperature here is 26 degrees Celsius. Maria pours us samples of coffee and cocoa—the tastes of both are rich and memContinued: DOMINICAN/ p24

Tracy Keen: A positive outlook by design We all know people who are forever whining or complaining. They’re like black holes, draining the very life out of us. We can’t seem to run away fast enough. Then there are those who emit such positive energy. They’re a real power source with the ability to attract people. They’re not perfect but have such good souls and their positive outlook helps influence people in a meaningful way. I found Tracy Keen to be such a person. Tracy was born and for a time raised in the pretty seaside town of Whitby, North Yorkshire, England. It’s a town loaded with history and legends and it is apparently where Bram Stoker wrote his novel, Dracula. Her father was in the navy and after he left became a captain on cargo ships, giving Tracy and her mother the opportunity to travel the world. “I lived in Singapore and Brazil for a while and attended American schools then in 1979 we came to Canada. I didn’t like school. It was hard to get close to people
because I knew that eventually I would move on,” she admitted. The family came to Canada as a result of her father taking on a job in Calgary. “It was because of the oil industry and like all good Brits we settled in Ana Victoria and my MACEDO father commuted between there and Calgary. I don’t think that he realized how far apart the two cities were when he did that. Eventually, the commute became too much and we moved to Calgary,” she explained. While Tracy disliked school, she did excel in the arts and after graduating from high school, studied commercial art and graphic design for four years at the Alberta College of Art. “Both of my parents are very artistic. My father is into watercolours and my mom is a florist with a flair for design. However, my father told me
that it’s hard to make money as an artist so I decided to go into commercial art instead,” she said. She graduated from college and promptly started her career with the Calgary Sun where she worked for the next twelve years. “I began building ads and moved my way up to include the printing side. Then, I worked up to supervisor of the deadline shift. This could get very stressful at times. When I first started there, it was pre-computers and everyone talked. Then computers came on the scene and it seemed like everyone became zombies. No one talked anymore,” she laughed. It was here that Tracy met her future husband, Dwayne. He was kind, giving and generous and she was thrilled when he asked her out. Destiny eventually prevailed and the couple married. After leaving the Sun, they moved to Cochrane, Alberta and she began working for two of the local papers; the Cochrane Eagle and the Calgary Golfer. Then, she took on a job with the McKelvie Real Estate
76
Graphic artist Tracy Keen in her studio. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Group as the marketing manager for Kelly McKelvie. “I worked there for eight years and I continue to do work for them even today,” she said. The Keen’s moved to Chilliwack in December 2009 after Dwayne took on a sales position with the HAWK. It was at this point that Tracy, with her years of graphic design experience,
decided to launch Tracy Keen Graphic Design. “I essentially create logos, letterhead, business cards; lay out ads, signs, booths, podiums and that sort of thing. Anything that you would expect from a graphic artist, that’s what I do. There’s nothing too big or too small. At times, I put in some long hours but I love what I do and I like getting
things done. I’m certainly not a procrastinator,” she chuckled. When Tracy has down time, she loves spending time with Dwayne and their 10-year-old son Wes. “I don’t have a lot of time right now but I do enjoy making jewelry and I love to experience culture. I would like to go to India and Italy and perhaps go back to Singapore and Brazil. Dwayne has
also written a couple of children’s books and I have to illustrate them,” she said enthusiastically. Tracy has real talent, experience; she’s easy to work with and has a positive outlook. She’s also fast, affordable and has the ability to inspire you by her sincere, positive personality. If you’d like to reach her, call her at 845-5562.

orable. She offers us snacks from a tray of fruit. Javier and I indulge in melons, grapefruit, crunchy strips of coconut and sweet lemons. The farm grows both the traditional sour lemon and this sweet one, much tangier than the best oranges. Also produced here, along with coffee, cocoa, molasses, vanilla, jams and chutneys, is the infamous mamajuana, a blend of rum, red wine, honey and herbs, which Javier says is taken for everything from stomach ailments to joint pain. An ounce sends your head zoom-
ing. It is sold everywhere in the Dominican Republic, but don’t try to bring any home: importing it to Canada is illegal. With Javier as my personal guide, my stay with Maria and her family was leisurely, but other visitors can have a similar, if shorter, experience through Bavaro Runners, a local adventure company whose day trips include stops at farms and schools. When Carlos Medrano was planning Bavaro Runners in the 1990s, deciding what to include on his tours, Maria called, insisting that he visit their farm. It was worthwhile for both parties. Today some 10,000 Bavaro Runners clients visit
Maria and her family annually. As Javier and I say goodbye to Maria, a Bavaro Runners truck pulls up and more than a dozen tourists disembark. It’s a win-win situation: tourists get a glimpse of local life and the family gets to sell its organic goods. It’s a small but fine example of eco-tourism working well. Explore More:

Spiderlodge Trio Rick Genge, Clay Thornton on drums, and Lori Paul are getting ready for the CD release party on July 23 at Grey Area Gallery for their latest album The Secret Language of Birds. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Music that speaks ‘the secret language of birds’ The Progress It’s not by accident that the new album by Lori Paul and Spiderlodge is chock-a-block with bird references. The CD The Secret Language of Birds has engaging songs, lively characters and small-town quirkiness. And of course, birds. Songbirds, ravens, sparrows and even “sleeping birds” lulled by river songs, appear in the lyrics. “I see birds as elemental,” says Paul. “Watching them at the feeder can be a balm for tired spirits in the modern world.” Paul is getting ready to play a benefit concert on July 23 as a way of celebrating the new CD release, with husband and multi-
instrumentalist Rick Genge, and percussionist Clay Thornton, at the Grey Area Gallery on Vedder Road. When she named the new album, The Secret Language of Birds, Paul said she was trying to express her “deep reverence” for feathered creatures and the natural world. “I am hoping that the lyrics, which are rife with bird references, will remind listeners of how precious each little bird is,” says Paul. “Migrating birds are now paying a huge price for the environmental degradation we humans have wrought all over the planet.” Ever since she started singing in choirs growing up on the Prairies, music-making became a central aspect of Paul’s life. At 15, she was captivated by
Joni Mitchell, writing poetry, and singing in Chilliwack rock bands. These days, when she’s not working on a new song, she’s coaching young singers or crafting a brilliant new blog entry. She and hubby Rick Genge run the Spiderlodge studio, offering recording, videotaping and music instruction for guitar, bass and vocals. This is Paul’s fourth recording, and part of the plan with this all-original CD of “greatest hits so far” was creating a body of work that the trio of Spiderlodge could perform live. The music has an easy rootsrock and folk feel to it. There’s a longing for the rejuvenating properties of nature expressed in some of the lyrics from the song, Dark Sky Preserve:
“Here beneath the sweet scented trees/ We are sheltered by their cool canopy/ And there’s no need for words/ The river sings a song for the sleeping birds.” Or here’s another line, where birds are front and centre: “And every sparrow flying free is gonna bring my song to you,” Paul writes in Letter to Louise. The CD is dedicated to Paul’s father-in-law, Charles Genge, in memory of his wife, Sylvia, as a way to thank him for his handmade guitars used by Rick and many others. The trio decided to make the July 23 event into a benefit concert, with all proceeds going to the Chilliwack SPCA. It’s a local cause they all felt they could all get behind, she said.

“I am hopeful that the work of the SPCA and its volunteers will help shift people’s thinking. It’s important to support causes in your community that make a difference. “We like to support organizations that work to protect and restore biodiversity, and our world’s ecosystems so that we can continue to enjoy the enchanting songs of birds, and admire the indescribably beautiful spectacle of birds in flight.” Spiderlodge CD release party for The Secret Language of Birds is July 23 at the Grey Area Gallery at 7 p.m with special guest Elliott Vernon.

Stenson noted. Examples include the Underground Railway project in 2010 and the Mighty Popoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tour with the Rwandan Forest People in 2006. The New Directions collaboration will be led by Gilday, and her band will back-up the other performers. Gilday is a captivating Dene singer/songwriter, with several national awards to her credit including a Juno and Western Canadian Music Award. She just released her much anticipated third CD, Calling All Warriors. Diga is a passionate songwriter who performs with great respect for the land, the Tlicho culture and the community elders. His music was nominated for a Juno Award in 2010 and won Best Male Artist of the Year and Best Folk Album at the 2005 Aboriginal Music Awards. Derksen is a cellist, from North Tall Cree reserve on her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side and a line of strong Mennonite homesteaders on her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side. Her music meshes classi-
cal training with her aboriginal ancestr y and new school electronics, creating genredefying music. Kinnie Starr has just released her fifth album A Dif ferent Day, which quickly reached number one on CBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Radio3. Of mixed European and Mohawk descent, she is praised for her fierce intelligence and ability as a rapper and â&#x20AC;&#x153;behind the scenesâ&#x20AC;? social activism. Diyet is from the Kluane First Nation and is a classically trained singer and a published songwriter. After years of city life she returned home to Bur wash Landing, Yukon to become a leader in her community. Her debut album was recorded with Juno-winning producers Bob Hamilton and Robert van Lieshout. Cloutier originally from Kuujjuaq, Nunavik (Nor thern Quebec) now living in Iqaluit, Nunavut is a performing artist, well known for Inuit throat singing and drum dancing. New Directions: An Aboriginal Collaboration will be performed on the Harrison Beach Stage on Saturday, July 16 at 5 p.m. and Sunday, July 17 at 2:20 p.m. A workshop is set for Saturday, July 16 at 11 a.m. in the Memorial Hall to discuss the project before it gets going.

n the heat of summer (should we be so lucky), we normally would be looking to add a little extra punch to our gardens, and there is one family of plants that has so much to offer but really doesn’t get the attention it deserves. Canna lilies have been around for a long time, but with interesting new foliage colours and blossoms, they’re experiencing a huge resurgence. Canna leaves that resemble those of bananas and flowers that look like ginger lilies add a refreshing tropical touch to any container or garden bed. The problem is we don’t use enough of them! I love cannas for their incredibly easy care. They not only thrive in the heat of summer but also, like dahlias, will carry your garden well into November. From a single tuberous root, they will develop into huge clumps, making a magnificent display. They also come in low (18 inches or 45cm), medium (3 feet or 90cm) and tall (6 feet or 180cm) sizes. Cannas can be used as foreground plantings or as giant background specimens. Cannas add drama. Their striking leaf colours and variegations create an opportunity for some fabulous combinations. There are dozens and dozens of canna varieties, but there are a few I’m really excited about. Black is still where it’s at, and there are a number of dark foliaged varieties. The master of black, however, is ‘Australia’. This rather slender and elegant grower has almost black leaves with brilliant orange-red flowers. It’s definitely a ‘wow’ plant in my book! There’s one variety that I’ve had my eye on for some time now, and it’s called ‘Constitution’. Its immense peach coloured flowers open above rich light grey-pink veined foliage. It’s a class act and would be quite at home surrounded by dwarf echinacea. Perhaps the most stunning of all cannas are the yellow and green varieties which, by the way, are all very similar. Striped ‘Bengal Tiger’, with its rich orange flowers, was one of the very first of the intense yellow and green striped varieties. ‘Pretoria’ looks almost identical with melon orange blooms and leaves similar to ‘Bengal Tiger’ but with a tiny red margin on the outside of its leaves. One of the newest introductions is a very classy white flowered variety with green foliage called ‘Ermine’. The most popular of all the striped varieties is ‘Tropicana’. It has intense green, orange and red striped foliage that changes intensity with the temperature and maturity of the leaves. Its orange flowers are a true compliment to its leaf colour. It’s just a great plant! Sometimes we simply get caught up in the foliage colours of cannas and overlook their exquisite blossoms. Some, in particular, are breathtaking. ‘Cleopatra’, with its most unusual red and yellow patterns, is one of the most sought after flowering forms. Today there are a whole series of designer colours such as peach, apricot and pink shaded varieties that blend in with our current colour schemes. Remember: cannas are well suited to both container and garden bed planting. They add both depth and vibrancy to any garden, but most of all, they can instantly add a magical touch of the tropics.

Chiefs open at home versus Vees Late last week the Chilliwack Chiefs acquired their first recognizable player, picking up local kid Josh Hansen from the Langley Rivermen. Wednesday afternoon we found out who Hansen and company will face as the Chiefs return to junior A hockey. The BCHL schedule has Chilliwack hosting the Penticton Vees Sep. 24 at Prospera Centre. Right away, Chiefs head coach and general manager Harvey Smyl will get a sense of where his team stacks up with the big boys. The Vees might well be the favourite to win it all next spring, returning most of their roster from last season, with some key
additions. Penticton went 38-17-3-2 to finish second in the Interior conference last season. The Vees will have the services of three National Hockey League draft picks; Mario Lucia (60th overall, Minnesota Wild), centre Steve Fogarty (72nd overall, New York Rangers) and defenceman Mike Reilly (98th overall, Columbus Blue Jackets). Chilliwack will see Penticton seven times, along with Vernon, Merritt and Salmon Arm. They’ll face Westside, Prince George and Trail eight times apiece with one game against each of the eight Coastal conference teams. Get BCHL info at www. bchl.ca.
The new-look Chilliwack Chiefs renew acquaintances with the Penticton Vees at the Chilliwack home opener, scheduled for Sep. 24. This photo is from 2003, when the Vees were the Panthers. PENTICTON WESTERN NEWS FILE

Chiefs miss out on Tambellini brother Graeme Corbett Black Press The hockey pedigree is undeniable, but Adam Tambellini isn’t about to ride the coattails of his family name, nor is he about to follow in the footsteps of his big brother. The son of Edmonton Oilers general manager Steve Tambellini, and younger brother of ex-Chilliwack Chiefs forward Jeff, Adam is intent on forging his own identity as he pursues his dream of becoming a pro. “It’s kind of good to have sometimes, but I don’t like to use it to my
advantage. I’m just like any other player in the league,” shrugged the 1994-born centre. Tambellini has already shown he can handle himself in big-pressure situations. He recorded a hat trick to help the Edmonton SSAC Athletics ground the Saskatoon Contacts 3-2 in the gold-medal game of the Mac’s Midget AAA Tournament in January. He finished the tourney with four goals and five assists in seven games. “I don’t think you can ask for any better situation than that. In the Mac’s tournament, that was probably the best game of my life
and I’m glad I got to do it on that stage,” said Tambellini. The Vernon Vipers are hoping the six-foot-one centre (he is already two inches taller than Jeff) will bring some of that scoring savvy when he joins the organization for the coming season. “He wants to make his own name for himself. He played for a pretty good team, but he was instrumental in their success,” said Vipers’ assistant coach Jason Williamson. Tambellini, a cousin of fellow Viper Aaron Hadley, compiled 29 goals and 25 assists for 54 points in 34 games with the Athletics, and was a constant threat on their powerplay.
Listed by the WHL Portland Winterhawks and sought after by several other junior clubs (Steve is close friends with Harvey Smyl of the Chiefs), Tambellini opted to follow the scholarship route. “I saw what my brother did in going to Michigan (NCAA Division 1 Wolverines) and it seemed to work out pretty good. He’s been playing in the NHL for six years now so I thought that was a pretty good road for me.” Incidentally, Jeff, playing with the Chiefs, and Williamson, as captain of the Vipers, battled one another in the 2001-02 Fred Page Cup finals. Chilliwack won the best-of-seven
series and advanced to the Royal Bank Cup. More recently, Tambellini watched Jeff play for another cup... as in the Stanley Cup. “It was pretty surreal to watch (Canucks vs Bruins). We got to go down for Games 5 and 7. Game 7 was quite the experience. I’ve never seen anything like that before,” said Tambellini, who has always received pragmatic hockey advice from his big brother. “All the time he was developing, he was telling me to just get out there and play the game and don’t worry about anything else.” Jeff has since left the NHL to sign in Europe.

Chilliwack native loves cars and collisions Born and raised in Surrey, Sean Edwards has claimed Chilliwack as home for the past 11 years. He has managed the Lordco Auto Parts Sardis branch for nearly a decade. As part of our continuing coverage of local racing at the Agassiz Speedway, Edwards talks this week about a racing career that has earned him more bumps and bruises than he’d care to count. Banged up beyond belief, the No. 174 Chevy Camaro of Sean Edwards keeps rolling at the Agassiz Speedway. SUBMITTED PHOTO

moment with my father was just two years ago when I put him in my demolition derby car at the Kitsap Destruction Derby in Silverdale, WA. The family and I fixed the car for him to race in the final event. Unfortunately he didn’t win, but his smile and appreciation for being able to race again was worth a million thanks. Over the years I have competed and placed first in several demolition derbies and figureeight races at the PNE, Agrifair (Abbotsford), Evergreen Speedway (Monroe, WA), Spanaway Speedway and KDDA (Kitsap Destruction Derby). My big achievement was earning the PNE top points championship for 1999 and 2000. My very first demolition derby and my very first win were at B.C. Place on Feb. 2, 1991.

sion to do what I do here today. I have memorable moments with both my parents. My favorite memory with my mother was at the PNE small car demolition derby championship. I believe it was in 1998. There were at least 25 cars in derby. My mother, myself and my sister (Theresa) were all in the race. It came down to mom and I at the end and we kept hitting each other very hard. The cars were so bent up that during the last few shots my mother gave me she ended up crushing two of her fingers. I still wasn’t out yet and she didn’t want to lose to her son. She kept hitting me until the car was done. Go figure! My most memorable

The Chilliwack Reign finished fifth overall at the bantam C fastpitch provincials, held last week on several diamonds in Chilliwack. Eight teams from the initial field of 17 made it
through to the doubleknockout championship round. The Reign advanced as the seventh seed, dropping their first playoff game to Langley Saturday night.
The Reign rebounded Sunday morning, upsetting the third-seeded Richmond Attitude. But Chilliwack’s run came to an end later that day with a loss to the top seeded team

Sports Wheelchair tennis program gets rolling A deep empathy for the physically disabled has prompted a local high schooler to establish a wheelchair tennis program in Abbotsford. Anthony Iliev, a 16-year-old tennis player who recently finished his Grade 11 year at Mennonite Educational Institute, is the driving force behind the Aces
on Wheels program, which runs on Monday afternoons from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the MEI tennis courts. “You recognize these people from the time you’re a little kid – ‘Mommy, why is that man in a wheelchair?’” Iliev said. “It’s not fair to see them like that. “I feel that I need to help these people, because I’m so blessed to have these legs of
mine and be free of all physical barriers.” Iliev, who helped the MEI tennis team to a bronze medal at AA high school provincials this past season, came up with the idea for a wheelchair tennis program in the spring. He got his wheelchair tennis coaching certification, drew up plans for the course, and pitched it to the BC Wheelchair Spor ts Association

(BCWSA). The provincial body came on board, and loaned Iliev a pair of sport wheelchairs to help him get started. Keeping the participation costs low is a priority to Iliev. The eight-week program, which opened on July 4 and runs through the end of August, charges just a $10 membership fee for people who are not already members of the BCWSA. Existing members will be charged $5. “I really think tennis should be available for everybody,” Iliev said. “It’s great for socializing, great for fun, and it makes you feel better about yourself. “It’s great to see people get involved, no matter what physical barriers they may have.” For more information on Aces on Wheels, call 604-768-4565.

A pair of Chilliwack natives are at National Hockey League prospect camps this week, learning how things work in the big leagues. Goaltender Thomas Heemskerk signed as a free agent with the San Jose Sharks two years ago and is looking to make the jump to the pro ranks. Heemskerk spent last season with the Western Hockey League’s Moose Jaw Warriors, appearing in 65 games. He won 36 with a 2.94 goals-against average and .908 save percentage. Heemskerk also played for the WHL’s Everett Silvertips and Kootenay Ice. Vancouver Giant Wes Vannieuwenhuizen has joined the Edmonton Oilers for prospect camp. Vannieuwenhuizen spent all of last season skating for the G-men, logging 64 games with eight assists and 157 penalty minutes. The 19-year-old missed several games due to suspension, sidelined after a hit from behind on Chilliwack Bruins forward Robin Soudek. The six-foot-three and 205 pound defenceman played 57 games with the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles during the 200910 season.

Provincial champs did it all in dream season The U-18 Gold Chilliwack Attack won the B.C. Provincial B Cup Championship last weekend in Penticton, becoming the first local team in the last 10 years to secure a provincial title.
Chilliwack started slowly in their Thursday round-robin opener, falling behind 1-0 to Prince George. Shaking two months of rust off, Chilliwack’s skill and depth took over in the second
half. With midfielders Branden Klassen, Connor MacMillan, Jeff Janz and Justin Williams providing the push, Andy Choe set up striker Justin Stanton to tie the game at 1-1. Zenow Renaerts set
up the second and third goals by forward Chris VanDer Werff and the fourth by Williams for a 4-1 win. Chilliwack blanked an aggressive Campbell River squad in their second round-robin game,
downing the Island District champs 3-0. The back line of Kyle Staiger, Jordan Lam, Patrick Bowie and Ben Ross was impressive, keeping things tidy around keeper Jamie Freeman.
SATURDAY, JULY 16 ONLY!
Freeman came up big when called upon. Thomas Davies and Cole Ewart scored in the third game, a 2-1 win over Richmond United. Chilliwack strikers Ewart, Stanton and Gerrid Crowe were unstoppable in the final game against Nelson. Already up 3-0, with a provincial title in sight, Janz was taken down in the box and Renaerts nailed the penalty shot
to put the game out of reach. The final was 5-1. The win capped off a near perfect year for the Attack. The team of 1993-94 born players also won a Coastal Cup, Fraser Valley District Cup, Conference Cup and District League title. All told, Chilliwack went 22-1-1 this season, winning every Cup game they played. Coaches Jason Klassen and Justin Heinze played key roles. Other members of the team were Cameron Longfellow, Nolan Hisco and Landon Wiens.
